I think it’s more “technically nothing stopping you from making it happen”. I can’t find anywhere where it’s actually implemented because it really is a bad idea, molasses might flow up hill quicker in winter than a GPU would run using swap files

I avoid the nitty gritty because I’m a software guy but as far as I know nothing is inherently stopping the computer from using the hard drive as extremely slow RAM even for the GPU. I mean we already have page and swap files, might need to be implemented, but I don’t see why it couldn’t be technically done.
Curseforge, another Minecraft launcher that many modpacks get uploaded to and also supports multiple versions, has been working for about a year for me on Linux Mint too incase she ever wants that.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Linux Distribution "NixOS" drama: Moderation Team resigns in protest over Interference of Leadership; Elected Leader works for US Military Company, fearing alignment with US fascistic development
352·1 month agoMost people when they hear “drama” they think things like the brain dead hissy fits on reality TV. The kind of pointless fighting we should avoid. Destigmatizing the word would legitimatize that stuff.
We really need a better word for this posts topic where there’s very public back and forth but it’s a much more valid moral disagreement.

I dunno, the whole body transmutation thing and the Lazarus thing? I think there’s an argument to be made he was necromancer or lich.

5·2 months agoIt’s recent on a relative scale but ancient news in the technology world. They’ve been disappearing since Apple started it in like 2016.

The not being available on any boggled my mind every time. There’s several shows I’ve wanted to watch that just straight up don’t exist anywhere anymore. Like I’m willing to give you money for a month or two so I can watch them or just rent but I can’t. It’s so crazy
